Description

Sklar Edge Tungsten Carbide Metzenbaum-Lahey Dissecting Scissors are most commonly used for dissecting and cutting tissue. Metzenbaum-Lahey scissors tend to be shorter than traditional Metzenbaum scissors. Sklar Edge Tungsten Carbide Scissors provide an exceptionally durable and hard cutting edge. These scissors are designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than standard scissors. Sklar permanently bonds tungsten carbide inserts to the blades of the scissors which maximizes control and precision. Sklar Edge scissors can be identified by two gold coated finger rings. This product has straight, smooth, sharp tips, and an overall length of 5-3/4 inches. It also has a delicate pattern.
